Description José Aliste 2013-01-09 13:04:40 UTC 
In fullscreen mode, recent version of evince will hide the toolbar automatically. Unfortunately, the toolbar will reappear when scrolling which makes this bad. We should instead follow gedit and only make the toolbar reappear when you point the mouse near the up edge of the screen (How to make this touch aware I don't know)

In touch screen devices it will depend on the input devices.

If 'finger touch' is present, then I would expect to scroll the document
using my finger in any part of the document.

There are some patches in xournal that allows using the finger as a hand
tool and the stylus to write and do other operations.

Currently, you can use 2 fingers to scroll the document (default in gtk+?),
which is not very handy to be honest, but I think it is only a mimic of the
touchpad that also supports multi-touch.

Also, the scrollbar these days is to slim to use it with a finger and/or
stylus.

Germán, thanks for the comment, but I was wondering about how/when make the toolbar reappear when you have a touch screen. In gedit the toolbar reappears when you move the mouse over the up edge, this is what I don't know how to make to work on touch devices
Comment 3 Germán Poo-Caamaño 2013-01-09 21:14:06 UTC 
I was thinking in the scrollbar.

For the toolbar, you can tap on the screen.

To get some ideas, see page 7 of ezPDF manual:
